Zusammenfassung |
The command and control unit's graphical user interface (GUI) is a central
part of early warning systems (EWS) for man-made and natural hazards. The
GUI combines and concentrates the relevant information of the system and
offers it to human operators. It has to support operators successfully
performing their tasks in complex workflows. Most notably in critical
situations when operators make important decisions in a limited amount of
time, the command and control unit's GUI has to work reliably and stably,
providing the relevant information and functionality with the required
quality and in time.
The design of the GUI application is essential in the development of
any EWS to manage hazards effectively. The design and development of such
GUI is performed repeatedly for each EWS by various software architects and
developers. Implementations differ based on their application in different
domains. But similarities designing and equal approaches implementing GUIs
of EWS are not quite harmonized enough with related activities and do not
exploit possible synergy effects. Thus, the GUI's implementation of an EWS for tsunamis is successively
introduced, providing a generic approach to be
applied in each EWS for man-made and natural hazards. |
